My favourite new substack is Beyond the Frame, from my incredibly talented colleague and friend @sam-fitzpatrick.bsky.social Sam offers genuinely unique perspectives on so many aspects of education and leadership. First up: narrating the story 👇🏽 samfitzpatrick.substack.com/p/whats-the-...

Teachers: I heard that if you haven't yet hoovered the house from top to bottom, and decluttered the useful drawer, they will take away your QTS.

I'm getting some pushback on my post about banning smartphones. Lot of it is "this is a moral panic don't ban stuff it'll be fine.' A key thing to understand here though is many young people themselves don't like what phones are doing to them. This is different to rock music or video games etc.

“Infinite” in maths and “definite” in not maths are related in that definite stems from “bounded within limits” (think “defined”) and infinite means unbounded without limits. So now you’ll never spell “definite” incorrectly again. You’re welcome. 😉

Turn and Talk is very popular right now, I see it in most lessons I go to. HOWEVER, in 95% of cases I watch it and think "that lesson would have been better without it to be honest" Why? 👇

Today I was about to write a blog about student autonomy and accountability in corridor conversations but was really glad to find I have already written it!! So here it is with a tiny update #EduSky #EduBlogUK adam-robbins.com/2023/04/30/s...

One of the many great points made by @pepsmccrea.bsky.social at #REd24 yesterday was that in the dark days many of us were enthusiastically doing brain gym / VAK / discovery learning but we were unable to identify that it wasn't a good idea. Evaluating whether teaching is effective is hard.

How good is @pepsmccrea.bsky.social? So many things to take away from his presentation today. I hope I can do it justice when I share my reflections with colleagues next week.

Massive thanks to @tombennett71.bsky.social and the team of organisers for delivering #REd24 today, as well as the presenters who have left me inspired and refreshed. Bravo! 👏👏👏👏

Totally agree. @priteshraichura.bsky.social was so inspiring. His superb modelling demonstrated how 100% attention by 100% of pupils 100% of the time is possible.

Love this from @mrarobbins.bsky.social for 2 reasons: Getting an insight into @pepsmccrea.bsky.social's excellent session today and reading about the impact #rED24 can have on practice. Also, Adam's session on prior knowledge was excellent and has lit a fire in my mind to try and do that better!
